wow... I'm really impressed (especially by the engine and rotor pics) but those speakers really stand out... not a fan. Seats look a little funny too!
But overall... great car!

That's a nice looking car. What's the 0 to 60 time on those?

It does 0-60 in 4.9 seconds and governed top speed is 155mph. Check this video of these guys maxing it out to about 170mph.

The speed warning you can actually set yourself. I have ours set to 80mph, reason being... In most cars 80mph is straight vertical, in the Audi straight vertical is around 95mph. Stupid engineering

Had to read up a bit on 'straight vertical'. Think I got it.
335Miles left on 4/5th of a tank? Does it have like a 25 gallon tank?

Yeah, by straight vertical, I mean when the speedometer needle points straight up, on most cars thats 80mph. On this car its around 92mph. So its easy to go too fast as I typically guage speed by where the needle is without actually looking at the numbers...
And I think it has a 23-24 gallon tank, but it still manages to get about 370 miles per tank. Pretty good considering the M gets about 320 miles per tank which is 20 gallons. Has to be that 6th gear...

Nice car, but too many doors. :p
Love the engine though. Is it going to stay stock? BTW, I got a sneak peak at the MMI v3.0. Friend of mine works for the German company that designs the software, they're up in northern NJ. He came down to check the Sirius traffic system in another market (Philly) and he was showing it to me a couple weeks ago. MMI 3.0 is very, very sick. Makes all the other systems look like garbage, so I seriously hope the competition has something in the works or else MMI will be a hands down winner.

No way... It could definetly use a little refresh. I think its pretty crappy the way it is right now. Its very cumbersome and requires a lot of button pusing to get where you want to be.

Maybe it was v4.0? Whatever version you're using, its the replacement to that.
